Timeline

1940

Armand made his 400th appearance for the club in Le Classique against Marseille, as PSG won 2–0.

1980

Sylvain Armand (born 1 August 1980) is a French former professional footballer who played as a left-back for Rennes, Paris Saint-Germain, Nantes, and Clermont.

1994

Born in Saint-Étienne, Loire, Armand started playing youth team football for AS Saint-Étienne in 1994.

1999

He wasn't retained for the club's senior squad and thus moved to Clermont Foot in 1999, where he received his professional debut.

2000

In 2000, having impressed with his performances in Clermont, he switched to top-flight club FC Nantes.

He staged his first appearance in Division 1 during the match between AJ Auxerre in Nantes (2–2) 9 September 2000.

2001

In a fairytale ending, he won the 2001 Division1 1 championship in his very first season with the "Canaris".

He also scored as Nantes won the 2001 Trophée des Champions.

The following three seasons were much less successful.

He is also the author of a memorable goal in the UEFA Champions League against Lazio in 2001–02, following a lonely run on the left flank.

2004

In 2004, Armand and Nantes teammate Mario Yepes both moved to Paris Saint-Germain for approximately $5 million.

Rarely injured and suspended, he missed only eight domestic league games between 2004 and 2008, all the while playing in different positions on the pitch, including left-back, centre-back, defensive midfield, and left midfield.

The club's league performances were much less satisfactory, with a series of mid-and low-table finishes between 2004 and 2008.

2006

After a very difficult season for PSG, Armand took part in the victory of PSG in the Coupe de France in the April 2006 final against Olympique de Marseille.

He was then voted best player in the Paris squad for the 2006–07 season following an impressive season, including a very important goal against RC Lens.

At the start of the 2006–07 season, Armand signed a two-year extension with the club, keeping him at the club until 2010.

With PSG, Armand won the 2006 and 2010 Coupe de France and the 2008 Coupe de la Ligue.

Even in the club's worst seasons, between 2006 and 2008, Armand established himself as a reliable performer and remained loyal to Paris Saint-Germain in spite of interest from other French clubs.

During this barren spell, he formed an efficient partnership on the left flank with Jérôme Rothen, and they were a major revelation in an otherwise disappointing Parisian side.

2007

In 2007–08, Armand lost his starting spot status for a game against Valenciennes FC in favour of youngster Mamadou Sakho, who also became the youngest captain in the history of the PSG at the age of 17.

Armand then gradually regained his best form, game after game.

He provided two consecutive assists, both to Amara Diané, against Lens in Ligue 1 (3–0) then against Valenciennes in the Coupe de la Ligue (4–0) three days later.

2009

In July 2009, Armand signed a three-year contract, keeping him at the club until 2012.

After the arrival of new coach Antoine Kombouaré in 2009, Armand was deployed in positions other than left-back, playing in central defence and even as a defensive midfielder when needed.

2011

On 17 April 2011, he reached a new landmark when he participated in his 319th game for PSG, thus overtaking legendary goalkeeper Bernard Lama's record.

In September 2011, Armand signed a one-year extension with the club, lasting until 2013.

After Carlo Ancelotti replaced the sacked Antoine Kombouaré, Armand struggled to remain a regular starter, especially after the influx of new players brought in by the club's wealthy new Qatari owners, led by Nasser Al-Khelaifi.

2012

Although he thought about leaving the team at the end of the season, he chose to remain with PSG for the 2012–13 season in the hope of finally winning the French championship.

2013

On 12 May 2013, two games before the end of the season, PSG secured their third Ligue 1 champions title, 19 years after their last championship win and nine years after Armand's arrival in the club.

Armand then quoted:

"We really wanted to win tonight to celebrate the title and we did that. Tonight we are truly champions, here with our supporters. I've been waiting for nine years for this title. I am honoured, and also proud. It also a very emotional night because, for the last week, we have been waiting to say thank-you to all our supporters, who have been here with us through thick and thin. Tonight was the crowning moment, the reward for all the hard work it took to win the championship for Paris and it is exceptional."

In the last game of the season, against FC Lorient, Armand was given the captaincy armband in his last PSG appearance as part of a farewell gesture.

At the time of his departure, Armand was the club's longest-serving player and he has been given the nickname "Mr. PSG."

On 3 June 2013, Armand joined Rennes on a free transfer, signing a contract with the club lasting until 2015.

Armand was previously linked with a move back to FC Nantes.

On 1 July, Armand was officially presented by the club.

2017

On 14 January 2017, Armand announced he would end his career at the end of the season.

In July 2017, following his retirement as a player, Armand was appointed deputy of Rennes' director of recruitment Jean-Luc Buisine.
